WalkWise Stafford

About Us

WalkWise Stafford offers a variety of led walks in and around the Borough. The walks are designed to suit walkers of all abilities, with shorter 'beginner' walks taking place every week. Longer 'progression' walks are offered once or twice a month for those who want more of a challenge.

Stafford WalkWise is part of the Stafford Borough Walking for Health Initiative that aims to improve health in our borough by encouraging more walking. The Health Walks in the WalkWise programme are short, led walks that take 10 - 90 minutes, we also offer a series of longer extended walks, ask the leader for details.

In severe weather, conditions may be hazardous and it may be necessary to cancel some walks. To confirm that your walk is going ahead, please contact the health and housing team on 01785 619000
